Police on Monday arrested a man for having child porn in his possession.

Pol Lt-General Surachate Hakpak, commissioner of the Immigration Bureau, said Jakkrit Uttarapong, 23, had been arrested after police found porno clips and digital photos of child pornography on both his computer and mobile phone.

The arrest was made after the Royal Thai Police’s Thailand Internet Crimes Against Children Centre (TICAC) conducted an investigation following tip-offs from a non-governmental children’s protection centre.

Police obtained a warrant for Jakkrit’s arrest after the TICAC found that the Internet Protocol address used by the suspect had downloaded child porn.
